I know my dad was worried and thought something was off about his bid, it could have become a Munto like experience for them. Certainly managed to avoid a bad decision, which wouldn't have been a good thing for Derby. Thankfully, he wasn't able to prove he had the funds I believe.

@super_ram will clarify.

That was a close call. People often criticise the fit and proper process, but wouldn’t he have been caught out by it?

thank goodness he did not take charge and ownership of derby, had he, they might not have gone back up to the championship so soon.

A lucky escape for Derby eh @super_ram ?

[NottsLoyal]

This wouldn’t have helped Derby at all. Is he a Derby supporter or just someone trying to stash his money away? I don’t know much about him, to be honest, but this news is surprising.

The Rams dodged a Bullet there then. And Surprise Surprise Another Crooked Yank trying to muscle in on an English Football Club.
